Dear Ms XXXXXXX
Pregnancy is associated with increased vaacularity of vagina and introitus. The increased blood flow may sometimes produce pulsating pain. If the pain is not associated with any of the following symptoms then there is no cause for concern
1. Bleeding or watery discharge from vagina
2. Pain in lower abdomen
3. Urinary complaint like increased frequency of urination, urgency and burning sensation while passing urine
4. Itching or pus like discharge from vagina
5. Fever
In the absence of above symptoms there is no need to worry.
I would like to ask you some more history
1. Since how long has the plan been present and the exact location
Adequate rest and analgesic like Paracetamol will be helpful. Paracetamol can be safely be taken. If the pain persist or you notice any of the symptoms mentioned then would suggest you to consult Obstetrician for further clinical assessment.
Do get back to me anytime you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Take care
